    Shorts can cover at this price so no hope of it getting back to those levels, it's over

    Yes but the whole point here is that when they cover there will be a huge spike.

    Right folks, not good.

    Glad I only bought 1.5 GME @230 so no horrible losses. The question is now should I just keep holding, or cut my losses? Decisions.


    you've already lost the bulk of what you are going to, like at this stage do you care if you go from -150 to -200

    Also AMC up16% rumor it's next inline for the wall Street bets treatment so will open a small position.

    Complete gamble looking at fundamentals however for 2021 fundamentals seem to have been replaced by retail investors deciding to not let a "Great American institution" die.
    Bought 700 shares when I wrote this on the 25th at 4.64 sold 100 at 16 and the remaining 600 today at 8 overall gain of 3.2k so I think I played it well .

    My gain could have been about 10k but that's the game.

    Once I seen Dave Portnoy sell out who was a big cheerleader I knew the game was up. Will have a look at price closer to closing bell hoping for a bounce tomorrow

    RH has raised their buy limit to 100 as of a little while ago so interesting to see if that has an affect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,394 ✭✭✭dan786


    Above 100 again

    Not really. If there will still be entertainment in it for the rest of the week I'd be inclined to hold... but if all the drama is done now then what's the point?

    GME was my first ever stock and it has been fun overall. Like another poster said (sorry I can't remember your name) I have barely thought about Covid at all.

    I have also learned some valuable lessons, both in terms of what not to do, and also learning a lot about terminology, markets, stock etc. Stuff I had no clue about a week ago.

    Perhaps this is the foundation for what will hopefully be some much more responsible (and profitable) investing (rather than hype based gambling) in future. Delighted though that I was strict with myself in terms of what I put in and kept any losses meaningless in monetary terms.

    They could gave also doubled up other shorts at the high share price. Either way they're winning on a drop in share price.
    They may have even traded on the up side too.

    The Reddit thread is insane.

    The Reddit thread is insane.

    I feel a little bit sorry for that guy who went from 50k-40m+. He's still up millions but I feel like he's surely been influenced even the slightest bit by Reddit pressing home the hold narrative.

    God... I would have bailed out long before that value!

    People are saying now that GME is on NYSE short restriction list meaning it can no longer be shorted.

    Share price halted on the way up at 120


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,394 ✭✭✭dan786


    AMC also recovering gone above 8$ again


  • Posts: 737 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Over 130 now, did I say the drama was over?!?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 311 ✭✭SmokyMo


    I think people are lost in the sauce if they think reddit/wsd can actually pump a tire let alone stock market...

    He's open about cashing out 14m so he's sorted for life in any case.

    Still hadn't touched his position from early last week at close of business last night. He's cashed out enough so he or his kids will never need to work again but he's still got a heavy position to contend with.
